I was born in a very small and very poor suburb of Detroit called Highland Park, and now I work–outside of Proximate– as an investment analyst for Gutter Capital. So, I have been in situations where I've had $0, and I can speak that language. Now, I'm the middleman for people to get investments of $1 million.Devin: Ben, what is your superpower?Ben: I think it has something to do with helping people tell their stories.My guests today, Ben Wrobel and Kevin McClendon, are co-founders–along with Meg Massey–of the nonprofit media company Proximate.“Proximate is a media platform that amplifies and connects movements for participatory problem-solving,” says Kevin. “We're a home for stories about creative community-driven models that shift power to people with lived experience or those proximate to the problem.”The company grew naturally out of a book that Ben wrote with co-founder Meg called Letting Go. The book built on their experiences. Ben says, “I worked for a participatory investing nonprofit called Village Capital that shifted decision-making power away from investors and towards entrepreneurs closer to the problem.”The team employs a solutions journalism lens, focusing on solutions when discussing societal challenges. Proximate narrows its aperture to primarily consider innovations in participatory philanthropy, investing and budgeting. The goal is to amplify the voices of those closest to and most impacted by problems.I'm excited about their work, in part because it recognizes the fundamental value of the crowd in crowdfunding and the value of investors who deploy relatively small amounts of money but bring perspective from the front lines of problems.Kevin highlights the uniqueness of the Proximate approach to news, “We're the only platform where you can find how a sex worker film festival and a food bank are solving for the same variables.”Ben and Kevin each bring superpowers to the game. Ben leverages an ability to help others tell their stories, and Kevin shares his unique diversity of experience to the work.AI Episode Summary* Kevin McClendon and Ben Wrobel are co-founders of Proximate, a media platform that amplifies and connects movements for participatory problem-solving.* They focus on stories about creative community-driven models that shift power to people with lived experience or those proximate to the problem.* Their work extends beyond capital and includes areas such as climate change, medical care, citizen science, and equity in the creative economy.* Proximate produces journalism and solutions journalism specifically, conveying information in a compelling way.* They hire local journalists to write about solutions in communities, such as locally-led disaster response in Puerto Rico, and cover different sectors like philanthropy, government, and impact investing.* Their goal is to be a clearinghouse for participatory problem-solving stories and create collections of stories for specific topics with the help of partner nonprofits.* Kevin's superpower is diversity of experience, having been in situations of poverty and also working as an investment analyst for Gutter Capital.* Ben's superpower is helping people tell their stories, finding people with big ideas and helping them communicate their work in a universal language.* Kevin suggests breaking silos and identifying similarities as a way to increase diversity of perspective, while Ben recommends speaking out loud and recording to overcome writer's block and improve storytelling.* To learn more about Proximate, visit their website, subscribe to their newsletters, and connect with them on social media. For Kevin, connect on LinkedIn and Instagram, and for Ben, email him or connect on LinkedIn. They are also looking for content, platform, and funding partners for collaboration.How to Develop a Diversity of Experience As a SuperpowerKevin shared an example that illustrates his superpower:So in writing for the participants, The Rise of Participatory ESOs, our most recent project that we've announced, because I've worked with a lot of the different industries that we covered, I had the insider look, so to speak, that I'm not writing as someone who's lived on the outside. I'm writing as someone who has both worked inside of these organizations and as well been a person who has been in a position to receive the results of what these organizations are attempting to accomplish.Kevin also offered some tips for expanding your own perspective. He suggests:* Break the silos and identify the similarities. * Stop creating these false barriers between groups. * Learn from what another person is doing. By following Kevin's example and advice, you can broaden your perspectives. In time, you may be able to make this a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.How to Develop Storytelling As a SuperpowerBen shared an anecdote to illustrate the power of storytelling:One of the participatory grantmaking funds that we profiled in Letting Go had been doing this work for ten years and just had a website and were well known in their small community but were not on the radar of a lot of other folks in philanthropy or beyond.We wrote a whole chapter about them in the book. Shortly after that, their founder and CEO left. She said, “I feel like my legacy is more secure now. Our story has been told.”I know that since then, they've been able to raise a good amount of money. I don't think that is entirely because of Letting Go.That's what I'm hoping to accomplish with Proximate. Every time we write an article about somebody, we hope that it will be used so that they can share it and talk about themselves and the work they're doing in a way they can be proud of.Ben offers a powerful storytelling tip:What I've often seen when people try to write an op-ed or write an essay, write about their work, they often are intimidated by a blank screen. Say the words out loud. Describe what you're doing to someone in your life and your family, and then take that–there is some great AI recording software out there, like Otter.ai. Turn on Otter and start talking. This is something people used to do way back in the day. Take a recorder; speak into it. That is one of the best ways to write: speak into your computer and then figure out what you just said.By following Ben's example and suggestion, you can improve your storytelling. With practice, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Guest ProfilesAbout Proximate: Proximate is a media platform that aims to amplify and connect movements for new models of participatory problem-solving.

About Host, Karla Nivens: After graduating from Texas Tech University, Karla earned her teaching certificate and began her career as an elementary music teacher in the Dallas Independent School District. She also sang for Grammy award-winning Gospel recording artists Kirk Franklin, CeCe Winans, Fred Hammond, Donnie McClurkin, Crystal Lewis, Willie Neal Johnson, John P. Kee, Alvin Slaughter, Tamela Mann, and Michael Buble'. She's traveled the world and ministered to diverse audiences in music. During her travels, she had the opportunity to sing on the Jay Leno Show, Soul Train, the Stellar Awards, and the Billy Graham Crusade with Kirk Franklin. She took a hiatus while staying at home with her children for several years and re-entered the workforce as a worship leader at Highland Park United Methodist Church. Karla has worshipped with Highland Park for the past 17 years. Currently, Karla is building the Racial Justice ministry for Highland Park UMC. Karla has also served as an adjunct instructor for Visible Music College and in 2014 released a CD entitled “True Worship.” Five years ago a good friend suggested she turn her heart toward fulfilling the Great Commission. Karla began traveling on yearly mission trips to Costa Rica and Africa. On those trips the Lord began to awaken the motto He gave her in college – “Influencing Culture for the Good of the Kingdom.” As an answer to this awakening, Karla and Dr. Roosevelt founded Karla Nivens Entertainment. Under this umbrella, Karla partnered with Love Ministries, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, started a small group for women, and a radio show both titled “Every Heart Every Woman.” Karla encourages her audience to quiet the noise and restore balance in their daily lives through inspirational entertainment. The show airs Sundays as a podcast on iTunes and Podbean weekly. The show also airs in video on YouTube.

Listen to today's podcast with Highland Park REALTOR® Betsy Brint, and you'll want to cast online votes for her as a finalist in NAR's Good Neighbor Award program. Brint has served the Highland Park Community Foundation for years but the recognition comes as a result of the role the foundation has played in helping the Highland Park community heal following the mass shooting at its 2022 Independence Day parade. Brint and members of the foundation worked with local leaders to distribute donations to families of those who died, were injured or traumatized by the shooting. If Brint and the foundation collect one of the three highest online vote totals before the Oct. 1 deadline, she will be named a Web Choice Favorite and the foundation will receive grant money to continue to support the community.

This wasn't the interview I'd set out to have with Smoking Popes frontman Josh Caterer. Smoking Popes were set to play an early slot on Day Three of Riot Fest; unfortunately the weather had other plans for the band. Flash flooding in the Chicago area forced Riot Fest organizers to push back the door time from 1pm - 3pm. As a result, a handful of earlier bands were 86'd from the line up, including the Popes. I ran into Josh as he got the text to say that a force majeure had forced them off the schedule. Shortly after that, we sat down for an interview, three hours earlier than originally planned. While the weather thwarted the Popes (their legion of fans), we can feel excited about what's ahead, including lots more new music! I love having Josh on the show; I'm a fan of his music and him personally.   Car Con Carne is presented by Alex Ross Art. Visit Alex Ross on YouTube!

On this episode of Tamarindo, we kick off Latino and Latine Heritage Month with Miami-raised writer and director Aitch Alberto. Her new film “Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe”is out now. Among her many accolades, Aitch was featured on Variety's 10 Directors to Watch for 2022 and Indiewire's 22 Rising Female Filmmakers to Watch in 2022. She is a Sundance Episodic Lab fellow. We chat about the beautiful coming-of-age film and the universal themes it explores. We discuss the common struggles of adolescence like self-discovery, identity, and acceptance, to explorations of masculinity through a Latino/Latine lens. As the writers' and actors guild strikes continue, supporting Latino and Latine films is more important than ever. We encourage everyone to watch this film and uplift everyone involved.  We also reflect on our matracas of the summer after a long break giving a special shoutout to Raizado, an ideas and culture festival produced by The Latinx House with Monica Ramirez and Olga Segura at the helm. The four day event featured Latinx actors and cultural and social change makers, including politicians, philanthropists, business owners, and community advocates and closed with an open community day at a local park.  Mentioned on this Episode: Encuentro Creative Retreat Feb. 15 - 19, 2024 in Puebla, Mexico: https://www.tamarindopodcast.com/encuentro Please join us for “Cultivating Financial Liberation” Oct. 5th, 2023 in Highland Park, register here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/cultivating-financial-liberation-tickets-704841107727 Tamarindo is a lighthearted show where hosts Brenda Gonzalez and Ana Sheila Victorino discuss politics, culture, and self-development.
